grandstar: Truth be told- they are a necessary evil.Just imagine the level of crime if no police were on ground? I suspect the high level of high way robbery is becaue of a ban on checkpoints. So whether you hate or love them, society needs them!

ifenadi: Just wondering the role of police officers at various check points along Nigerian roads.Apart from police we have other force men along the roads and thief role are very clear to me:

CUSTOM OFFICERS
They will ask you of your custom papers only. Once they are satisfied with the documentation they will let you go

ROAD SAFETY
They are simply interested if you are wearing your seat belt and that you are not over speeding, over loaded or driving dangerously.If they stopped you, they will simply check if you have a valid drivers license, if you have good spare tyre, fire extinguisher and caution signs. They might go further to check if your travel gator and break lights are working properly.

SOLDIER(MILITARY MEN)
If they stop you, they will just check if you there so many male occupant in the vehicle. If that is the case, they will ask everybody to come down while they search each person for any incriminating items or arms. They might go further to search the vehicle buts, pigeon hole, under the seats and so on.

AGBERO
You will see these guys mainly in commercial cities. They are just after public vehicles. Once they stopped you, they will check if you have purchased their tickets and once you are cleared you are good to go.

POLICE.
They perform virtually all the role explained above and that is what I don't seem to understand. A police officer will stop you, search your buts, search all the occupant of the vehicle, search the pigeon hole. Request for your drivers license, your vehicle particulars and some cases custom papers. Ask you to open your bonnet, check your engine and engine number, check your chassis number for correctness. Check if you have fire extinguisher and have a spare tyre. If you are not on seat belt, you will be booked too. And so on and so on. You can add yours

bola4dprec: Going by the record of Nigeria Police Force all the duty/duties slated above were ordinarily police duties before establishment of major para-military bodies, that is why anywhere you go you see police even in border take for example The NPF performed conventional police
functions and was responsible for
internal security generally; for
supporting the prison, immigration, and
customs services; and for performing
military duties within or outside Nigeria
as directed. Plans were announced in
mid-1980 to expand the force to
200,000. By 1983, according to the
federal budget, the strength of the NPF
was almost 152,000, but other sources
estimated it to be between 20,000 and
80,000. Reportedly, there were more
than 1,300 police stations nationwide.
Police officers were not usually armed
but were issued weapons when required
for specific missions or circumstances.
They were often deployed throughout
the country, but in 1989 Babangida
announced that a larger number of
officers would be posted to their native
areas to facilitate police- community
relations. Rate of corruption in the force make them inferior otherwise they suppose to be respected by everyone in nutshell police is the father of other forces and para-military I pray may God reform them, to have a better nation police is charge with multi-duty even EFCC is a branch controlled by police
They were empowered to investigate and prosecute while judiciary to adjudicate

YOU WILL NOT BREAK MY WAIST WITH YOUR HUMOR. THOSE BLOKES ONCE STOPPED ME ALONG SHOBAYO IN PALM GROVE. I HAD TWO SIM CARDS AND TWO PHONES. THAT WAS MY OFFENSE. THEY SAID ONLY A THIEF WILL HAVE MORE THAN A SINGLE PHONE..BUT SOON AS THEY SAW I HADN'T MONEY ON ME THEY FREED ME BUT WASN'T UNTIL ABOUT 30MINS OF ARGUMENTS.

Soloter: if arm robbers catch you and you cooperate, they will only collect your money and spare your life,
while the police will surely kill you and make away with the money whether you cooperate or not.
